The prehistoric and later enclosure containing a stone hut circle located 1.2 kilometres north-north-east of Fernacre Farm is a scheduled ancient monument in Cornwall that demonstrates prolonged settlement activity across multiple periods. The site comprises an enclosure of prehistoric origin, evidenced by its earthwork form, within which stands a stone hut circle characteristic of Bronze Age domestic structures found across Cornish moorland and upland zones. The presence of later occupation phases indicates the enclosure was reused or modified during subsequent periods, reflecting the longstanding importance of this location as a settlement focus. Such sites are significant for understanding the evolution of settlement patterns and land use in southwest England from the Bronze Age onwards.
